Translocation (8;9)(q12;p21). A new non-random rearrangement in lymphoid malignancies.
We report two cases of t(8;9) with probable breakpoints in 8q12 and 9p21 in malignant lymphoma. In a review of the literature, we found two cases of acute lymphocytic leukemia and one case of malignant lymphoma which probably share the same breakpoints.
